Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Nan Kang sat down at the dining table and stared at Zheng Yue as she entered the kitchen. Then, he looked up and sized up his surroundings when she was not around.
The small apartment was very warm. There were traces of life everywhere. It seemed that Zheng Yue had lived here for a while.
“The dishes are here—” Zheng Yue brought the dishes she had prepared to the table.
She looked very happy. From the moment she entered the door until now, she had been very happy. She even subconsciously raised her tone of voice, obviously very happy that Nan Kang could come.
Nan Kang’s arrival made Zheng Yue very happy. Although she had not thought of how to tell Nan Kang about her pregnancy, she looked forward to the child’s arrival from the bottom of her heart.
Zheng Yue even imagined that if Nan Kang found out that she was pregnant with his child, he would definitely not be able to suppress the excitement in his heart and break his usual composure. He might be happier than her.
Zheng Yue had personally made this dinner of love for Nan Kang. In order to let Nan Kang feel her sincerity, Zheng Yue suppressed her morning sickness and other reactions. After packing up, she sat beside Nan Kang.
Zheng Yue looked at him with a smile. “1 specially learned this dish. I saw that you seemed to like it very much when we were out networking previously, so 1 took note of it. And this one…”
She was very talkative. Normally, Nan Kang would have fallen for this.
However, there was no expression on his face today. His eyes looked at Zheng Yue, but he could not read her thoughts.
He sized up Zheng Yue. The little girl was at the age where she loved to look beautiful. Usually, she would wear the beautiful and fitting dresses he had bought for her, but today, she was wearing a loose sweater.
There was more flesh on her face. Her sharp jawline was less obvious now, and her cheeks look rounder.
These seemingly subtle changes did not escape Nan Kang’s eyes. He looked at Zheng Yue, who was sitting beside him with no joy on his face.
“Did something happen to the company?” Zheng Yue sensed that he was in a bad mood and asked carefully.
During this period of time, she had been staying in the small apartment and was cut off from the outside world, so when she saw Nan Kang’s expression, she thought that something had happened in the company’s business and that those difficult business partners had caused him trouble.
Zheng Yue thoughtfully picked up some food for Nan Kang. “It must be because they don’t have good vision. Your company is so good…”
She was racking her brains to think of a way to comfort Nan Kang when Nan Kang suddenly grabbed her chopsticks.
“Are you pregnant?” His tone was cold, an obvious interrogation.
Nan Kang grabbed her wrist so tightly that Zheng Yue was shocked and could not break free at all.
Zheng Yue panicked. She didn’t expect Nan Kang to suddenly ask this question, and her mind went blank.
Fortunately, she was quick with her words. “What are you talking about? What do you mean pregnant?”
Zheng Yue pretended not to know. Her confused eyes met Nan Kang’s probing gaze. She resisted the panic and physical discomfort and did not dare to struggle.
“You’re not pregnant?” Nan Kang asked her back.
He smiled for the first time since he entered the room, but there was sarcasm in his sneer.
Nan Kang took out the pregnancy report and threw it at Zheng Yue’s face. “Explain to me what this is!”
Zheng Yue subconsciously turned her face away, but her cheek was scratched by the right corner of the folder. It stung and bled.
She looked at the folder in confusion and then at Nan Kang’s eyes that were hiding fire. She was a little afraid of him.
Zheng Yue reached out to take it. Under Nan Kang’s dark gaze, she slowly opened the folder and took out the pregnancy test report.
She panicked at first glance. She didn’t expect Nan Kang to know about this.
She bit her lip and Nan Kang saw her guilty look.
“Speak,” Nan Kang said coldly.
Zheng Yue stammered. Her original thoughts of quibbling were all beaten back by this pregnancy test report.
Seeing her like this, Nan Kang understood everything. He let go of Zheng Yue’s hand and got up from his seat.
Zheng Yue couldn’t react and fell to the ground when Nan Kang released his grip suddenly.
This pain on her b.u.t.t reminded her, and Zheng Yue immediately spoke.
“I was going to give you a surprise.” She hurriedly tried to salvage the situation.
“I didn’t tell you before because I wanted to wait until it stabilized.”
Nan Kang heard all the words, but there was no sweetness at all.
“1 just… I just like you a lot.” Zheng Yue’s eyes reddened as she spoke.
“I can’t be happier at the thought of having a child with you. Besides, you’re going to be a father. This must be something to be happy about.”
“I really love you. That’s why 1 want to give birth to it. Besides, I’ve already thought about it. When we get married in the future…”
She spoke quickly, as if she was trying her best to prove something.
Zheng Yue did not expect the matter to be exposed so quickly. She touched her stomach and said anxiously with a hint of secret joy.
Although it was indeed a little rushed to tell Nan Kang this news, this was his child!
Zheng Yue’s mind was filled with thoughts of how happy she would be in the future, and she didn’t notice that Nan Kang’s expression was getting worse and worse, almost as dark as the bottom of a pot.
“I can stop going to school and stay at home to take care of the baby. After 1 give birth, I’ll focus on taking care of him…”
The more Zheng Yue spoke, the happier she felt. On the other hand, the panic she felt when she was exposed gradually disappeared.
However, Nan Kang was impatient. Fie didn’t care about this child at all. His first thought was that this was troublesome.
“Abort the child. 1 don’t want to repeat myself.” His tone was resolute, and there was no room for conversation.
Zheng Yue stopped mid-sentence. “What?”
She slowly raised her head and looked at Nan Kang, her reaction to his words surprisingly slow.
“You mean… abort this child?” Zheng Yue’s voice trembled.
How could that be? How could Nan Kang have such a reaction?
She subconsciously refused to believe that something like this had happened. The hand that was supporting her body turned to protect her stomach. It was obvious that she was unwilling to listen to Nan Kang and her limbs resisted.
Nan Kang was furious. “I don’t need you to have my child. 1 have my own!”
His words were merciless, or perhaps Nan Kang did not intend to care much about Zheng Yue in the first place.
Nan Kang was already overwrought by the current situation. Besides, he didn’t plan to have any more children. The three at home were enough.
Most importantly, he was already at this age. It was normal for him to fool around outside, but if people found out that he married a young female student and even fathered her child, what would happen?!
“But…” Zheng Yue’s mind went completely white.
Zheng Yue did not want to accept the fact that Nan Kang had thrown her exquisite plan to the ground with just one sentence.
Her face, which was originally as pale as a peach blossom, had also lost its color. She even had the illusion that her stomach was aching.
Nan Kang interrupted her. “You’d better listen to me.”
At this point, Nan Kang had also lost his patience with Zheng Yue.
To be able to get pregnant under his strict guard, it could be understood that Zheng Yue had been planning for a long time. Nan Kang felt that he had been blind from the beginning to think that Zheng Yue was kind and innocent.
Since he had already made it clear, he naturally did not have the appet.i.te to eat. He turned around to get his coat and planned to leave.
There was only one solution to this matter. If Zheng Yue did not intend to listen, Nan Kang would turn to other methods..
